My friend and I were talking about sad death scenes that actually seem funny when you do not know any information about the character or story. After that he told me about "Grave of the Butterflies" which is a movie about two children who lose their parents and struggle to survive during the second world war.

I'd say take a look at this movie sometime. It will bring you to tears.

Grave of the butterflies.

what.

On another note, this story is somewhat sad - Several of my friends have sworn to crying during the end of it.

I think I might like this, and judging from reviews I've read I'll probably be crying throughout it too.

8 Name: Chicken : 2011-06-02 00:15 ID:EUbPmrz2 [Del]

I really do recommend watching this movie...
We had a Miyazaki movie week here in Aus a while ago and I was so glad i saw this. <3

I own the DVD and back when I was younger I had watched this, but I really didn't understand it which is why I didn't like it because it wasn't 'happy' or 'pretty'. But a few months ago I watched it once more and I understood it, I really comprehended it more since I'm older. It really was a tragic movie that had me shocked and really thinking. And what he does for his little sister is so kind and selfless.

I watched this, and was like "Why didn't the kid just go home to the aunt, she might have been an ass, but, food and shelter"
I didn't cry, I cried during barefoot den though (Isnt that the name of that odd Anime, with that odd deathbombscene?, anyhow, that one)..

Such a downer movie, but really, people should watch it. Very good. I don't usually like this kind of movie, but it was captivating.

12 Name: kuuki no you na kobura : 2011-06-25 23:03 ID:1eyDZiMl [Del]

this mopvoie is heart breaking. :'( but the 42 is right. everyone should watch it. esp. the kids of today's generation who have not experienced the hardships of the people during wwII

13 Name: dislocated : 2011-07-15 08:33 ID:onBge5Dj [Del]

14 Name: Kinri : 2011-07-15 23:21 ID:6Td4dmlw [Del]

I just watched it. TT-TT I was crying! It was an amazing movie. I want to dive into the anime and adopt them! I can't believe how cruel every one was! I realize it was war time but still!!! TT-TT (still crying)

15 Name: Kazue : 2011-07-16 00:53 ID:Exfdd5O1 [Del]

I think my friend mentioned this once. Said it was something that everyone should watch. I completely forgot about it until now, so thanks.

16 Name: Nakama !Ly7MRw0CGU : 2011-07-20 10:58 ID:64z+08Op [Del]

I heard of another movie called "Barefoot gin" and it's about japanese children during WWII. And yes, it includes bombs.

17 Name: マシンガン : 2011-08-11 18:45 ID:OSX/ieDE [Del]

This movie is depressing. It's based on WWII Japan, so don't expect a happy ending.

Also, SPOILER: Everyone dies.

18 Name: MastaT : 2011-08-12 23:58 ID:dRBc4TJU [Del]

Lol, I saw this movie 2 days ago with someone...
It was quite a sad movie...

19 Name: LeoN : 2011-08-18 01:53 ID:EgFPI5qo [Del]

old movie.. and
it's my first unhappy ending movie.

20 Name: Kaze : 2011-08-19 06:22 ID:AHY0jgzh [Del]

>>17 you couldn't have said the spoiler in a better way XD
Literally, everyone dies. Such a depressing movie.
I wouldn't recommend this movie to already depressed people.

21 Name: Anonymous : 2011-08-22 05:10 ID:qKVQvx88 [Del]

I was one of them ; o ;
Really sad although still like it

22 Name: Inuhakka !.5xqXJfr96 : 2014-01-13 10:07 ID:5+RRY2RP [Del]

>>19

You should get out more.

And besides, the movie had a happy ending.

The Aunt was fine at the end.

23 Name: ZenithYore : 2015-04-14 02:03 ID:4dcKP8Uy [Del]

>>17 True.
This movie is indeed sad. For some reason it reminds me of Now, and Then, Here, and There.

24 Name: ZenithYore : 2015-04-14 02:05 ID:4dcKP8Uy [Del]

>>22 *Spoiler?* The Aunt should have died.*Spoiler? End* I was sick of her.

27 Name: ZenithYore : 2015-04-17 20:49 ID:8ShYVjA5 [Del]

28 Name: Ayumi Nakada : 2015-04-18 08:51 ID:lDULT4vC [Del]
